Abstract
Introduction Contemporary cardiac surgery uses implanted devices for stimulation or substitution of the function of various organs, such as pacemakers, which drive the heart rhythm, or cardioverter defibrillators, for electrotherapy [...]
The operating principles of an epicardial pacemaker (EPM) with microelectromechanical system (MEMS) converter in patients with cardiovascular pathology are described. Biological tests of this device in a patient with a rhythm abnormality after heart surgery are described in detail. Correlation analysis of all the input parameters of the device was run to obtain high power for MEMS output parameters to ensure effective operation of the pacemaker.
